So my health anxiety is bad, but recently I've giving up all the Internet search, and I've felt better. Not 100% but better.. less worried, less anxious but there are times where I can feel it coming, and I quickly stop it, get up, or go to my happy place, or just breathe and focus on heart rate, and it goes away, it doesn't take control. It's hard to do that, but I do It! Sometimes it wins, but only for a short while... how can I beat This? My urges of searching up mental illness takes over me. My thoughts about maybe getting worse or getting a worse mental illness makes me scared. Scared I'll end up in a white jacket in a hospital, or in the street homeless, or maybe in mental jail. I don't want that, and it makes me sad thinking about it. Not depressed sad, but honestly, if I ever get that bad, I'd stop myself from hurting anyone by dying.

Stop Googling this is a New Year Resolution as is worrying about worse things happening regarding your Menta Health Concerns. I have a white jacket although I never wish to end up in a Straight Jacket, they really tire your arms, lol.
Stop worrying about been sectioned, they prefer not to take you in it can be very expensive and I feel the Christmas dinner will be better at home
Do you live in a Private rental Apartment, is that why you are so worried about being homeless ?
Are you at home for Christmas, are you going somewhere nice ????

Bob, you do know you're awesome right? Because if you don't, now you do. Christmas at home with the family, and im not so worried anymore. I just use the term "so what" and use mindfulness to chill out when my mind tries to race. I guess when I go to work that helps me too. I focus so much on my work, and trying to do my best, I forget about everything else, and it doesn't come back, until my sister gets bad again.
Thank you Sam
Have a very Merry Christmas
